Big news from Oregon: Oregon tribe celebrates as court lifts decades-long hunting and fishing restrictions "For the last 47 years, the Confederated Tribes of #Siletz Indians have held an annual powwow to celebrate regaining federal recognition. This month’s event, however, was especially significant: it came just two weeks after a federal court lifted restrictions on the tribe’s rights to hunt, fish and gather – restrictions tribal leaders had opposed for decades." #sovereignty #landback
